Lovely setting and top notch harpist. After that everything falls flat. The service was lacking. The food was mediocre at best, and did not seem entirely fresh—perhaps it was sitting out or in the fridge for a while? None of the food was unique or too interesting except maybe the crab salad. The item I liked the best was the egg salad sandwich which is not saying a lot. The scones were just ok. The desserts were forgettable.

The setting and tablescape were lovely, service was friendly. It was uneventful usual to have the sandwiches first and no tea served until the 2nd course. I would have preferred to pour from the pot at the table as the tea continued to brew thru the 3rd course. But everything was delicious

What a great experience! I've been attending the Windsor Court tea for about 30 years and it's consistently fantastic. The service is wonderful, and the tea is AMAZING. My friends had the specialty tea this time--something like strawberry/champagne. I had the green/pomegranate. DElish!

It is always a treat to go to High Tea at the Windsor Court Le Salon. Many special occasions celebrated there. They can accommodate a large party as well as make your small intimate gathering special. This time it was a 21st birthday. Time before have been bridal bachelorette weekend/shower, 18th birthday, mother's day, cancer free tea, Christmastime friends get together. Their food is more of a value than the Ritz Carlton and the ambiance is lovely, with a harpest and pianest providing beautiful background music for a memorable experience. The staff is knowledgeable and good at what they do. Love it. Would go every week if I could.

Beyond disappointed with the afternoon tea time my girls and I went to. The first course was cute and lovely but it took until after then to even get our tea order in even though the rest of the service felt extremely rushed and definitely not relaxing. The harpist playing that morning was lovely, but that does not distract from the fact that the tea is in a loud hotel lobby and we had untamed children screaming at the table over. While eating the second course one of our champagne glasses fell, filling a plate my friend was eating in. When the waitress finally came over to help us she provided an already wet towel with stains to clean the wet plate and did not offer to fix the issue further. We were given a dirty towel to clean our nice plate which ultimately left it dirty. The last course was incredibly small and didn't even have enough for the four of us to have one of every dessert like the other courses. We were then promptly handed the check (which already includes 22% gratuity for the service) and the waitress never came back to our table to fill up our tea as she deemed our service ended. Overall the space is extremely gorgeous and the food was cute but the price is extreme for the service we were given. The first course was good but the following two were underwhelming in taste. I did not feel like my table was treated with hospitality and left the experience feeling very disappointed. Definitely will not be coming back here during our next trip to NOLA.
